Dirty Half Dozen 9 Binga’s Ringas 6 Very interesting.  Last year, as Off Constantly steamrolled its way to the finals, DHD was consistently in second.  Yet entering the playoffs, everyone was looking at Derelicte or Binga’s as sexy upset picks.  It’s not as if the Dirty Half Dozen aren’t sexy – you should see theirContinue reading “No Team Is An Island: Week 8 in BowlPortland (part I)”

It’s on the street.  Inside your head on every beat, and the beat’s so loud, deep inside, the pressure’s on just to stay alive.  Well, everyone remains ‘alive’ technically as everyone makes the playoffs, but that doesn’t take away from Glen Frey’s paean to end-of-season positioning in BowlPortland.  There are six byes up for grabsContinue reading “Week 8 Lines: The Heat Is On”

Honorable mention – Pinstigator, Great Lost Spares with a 201.

Pinups 10 Incredibowls 5 (big ern) The Pinups came out in full force for Game 1. Chunk and Silky Pete had strong games, and despite huge games by Boston and Sweet Baby Lou, the Pinups came away with a Game 1 shutout. Not ones to take such a result lightly, the Incredibowls, like a corneredContinue reading “(even) more week 6…”

Off Constantly 8.5  Dirty Half Dozen 6.5 by Jeltz – DHD There were no cheering crowds, no frenetic sportswriters, no celebrities in attendance, but the long-awaited rematch of last year’s champion and runner-up was like a classic heavyweight fight. And like a heavyweight fight, it was preceded by an absolute circus: Trying to warmup withContinue reading “week 6 continued”
